Mac McCarty was a certified Chimney Sweep and a state-licensed Masonry Contractor. He inspected, cleaned, repaired and rebuilt both brick and prefabricated chimneys. In addition he was licensed to clean, install and repair dryer vents. Mac was originally from Kentucky and came from a long line of brick masons going back to Ireland when his family came to the United States in 1742. Mac moved to California in the early 1970's. Before becoming a mason he was a full-time musician playing with other famous musicians such as Tiran Porter & Dave Shogren (Doobie Brothers), Max Haskett (Rubicon) and Stef Burns (Y&T, Alice Cooper). Mac passed away in 2012 but his memory lives on!
